How to Register to Become a Potential Supplier with RBC

To be considered as a potential supplier, you must register by completing our
Supplier Information Form.
Once you complete and submit the form, your information will be part of our Potential
Supplier Database,
where it will remain for two (2) years. The
Supplier Information Form is your opportunity to tell us about your
company, and it is our primary source of supplier information
that we refer to when we assess the market for new sourcing opportunities.

Completing the registration ensures your company will be considered for bid but it does not guarantee that
your company will receive an invitation to bid or a contract from us, nor does it imply that your company has any
type of procurement relationship with us, either now or in the future. In the event RBC considers a sourcing event
for products or services described in your supplier registration, your application may be considered and we may contact you.

Once you have completed and submitted our Supplier Information Form, you will receive an electronic
acknowledgement confirming that we have received your information.
For assistance in completing the Supplier Information Form, please refer to our
Help page
or if you have trouble submitting the form contact us at
procurementsupport@rbc.com.
